Warning Lights
Engine Management System
Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL)
The Malfunction Indicator Light
(MIL) for the engine management
system illuminates when the ignition is
switched ON (to indicate that it is
working) but should not become
illuminated when the engine is running.
If the MIL becomes illuminated when the
engine is running, this indicates that a
fault has occurred in one or more of the
systems controlled by the engine
management system. In such
circumstances, the engine management
system will switch to 'limp-home' mode
so that the trip may be completed, if the
fault is not so severe that the engine
will not run.
Warning
Reduce speed and do not continue to
ride for longer than is necessary with
the MIL illuminated. The fault may
adversely affect engine performance,
exhaust emissions and fuel consump-
tion. Reduced engine performance
could cause a dangerous riding
condition, leading to loss of control and
an accident. Contact an authorized
Triumph dealer as soon as possible to
have the fault checked and rectified.
Note:
• If the MIL flashes when the ignition
is switched ON contact an
authorized Triumph dealer as soon
as possible to have the situation
rectified. In these circumstances
the engine will not start.
Low Oil Pressure Warning Light
With the engine running, if the
engine oil pressure becomes
dangerously low, the low oil pressure
warning light will illuminate.
Caution
Stop the engine immediately if the low
oil pressure warning light illuminates.
Do not restart the engine until the
fault has been rectified.
Severe engine damage will result from
running the engine when the low oil
pressure warning light is illuminated.
Note:
• The low oil pressure warning light
will illuminate if the ignition is
switched ON without running the
engine.
